Description
**New Pediatric Practice (De Novo) | Rocky Mount, North Carolina**
**Location:** Rocky Mount, NC
**Employment Type:** Full-Time
**Practice Status:** New Practice Opening Soon
**Build Something New — Where It’s Truly Needed**
We are launching a **brand-new pediatric practice in Rocky Mount, North Carolina**, and seeking a pediatrician who wants more than a traditional associate role.
This is a **rare opportunity to help build a practice from the ground up** in a community with **significant unmet pediatric demand**. Families in and around Rocky Mount are actively seeking accessible, high-quality pediatric care—and this practice is being designed specifically to meet that need.
From day one, you will play a meaningful role in shaping the clinical experience, care model, and community relationships of a practice built to last.
**Why Rocky Mount?**
Rocky Mount offers an appealing combination of **professional opportunity and lifestyle flexibility**:
- **Less than an hour from Raleigh and the Research Triangle**
- **Less than two hours to North Carolina’s Crystal Coast beaches**
- Affordable housing and an easy commute
- Strong community ties and a clear need for pediatric access
You get the impact and visibility of a smaller community—without giving up proximity to major metro amenities or coastal getaways.
**The Role**
As a founding physician, you’ll be central to establishing how care is delivered and experienced in this new practice.
**What you’ll do:**
- Provide comprehensive pediatric care to infants, children, and adolescents
- Build long-term, trusted relationships with families in the community
- Help shape clinic workflows, culture, and patient experience
- Participate in community outreach and local partnerships
- Collaborate closely with medical and operational leadership as the practice grows
This role is ideal for a physician who values **autonomy, purpose, and ownership**—and wants to be part of something from the beginning.
**Qualifications**
- Board Certified or Board Eligible in Pediatrics
- Eligible for medical licensure in North Carolina
- DEA license (or ability to obtain)
- Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset
- Interest in community engagement and practice-building
**Compensation & Support**
- Highly competitive compensation package
- Anticipated eligibility for Federal loan repayment opportunities (up to $100,000), pending program approval and site qualification
- Anticipated eligibility for North Carolina Office of Rural Health incentives (up to $100,000), pending approval and program requirements
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- Generous paid time off and holidays
- Malpractice coverage
- Full operational and administrative support so you can stay focused on patient care
**Why This Opportunity Stands Out**
This is not a replacement role or a saturated market. It’s a chance to:
- Be a **founding physician** in a thoughtfully designed pediatric practice
- Serve a community with **real demand and immediate need**
- Enjoy proximity to Raleigh and the coast while maintaining a manageable cost of living
- Build something meaningful—with room for leadership and long-term growth
